Imperial Woman : The Story Of The Last Empress Of China (Unabridged) (Audio CD)
$4.00
The story of Tzu Hsi is the story of the last Empress in China. In the novel Nobel Prize winner Pearl S. Buck recreates the life of one of the most intriguing rulers during a time of intense turbulence.
Tzu Hsi was born into one of the lowly ranks of the Imperial dynasty. According to custom, she moved to the Forbidden City at the age of seventeen to become one of hundreds of concubines. But her singular beauty and powers of manipulation quickly moved her into the position of Second Consort.
Tzu Hsi was feared and hated by many in the court, but adored by the people. The Empress’s rise to power (even during her husband’s life) parallels the story of China’s transition from the ancient to the modern way.
Pearl S. Buck’s knowledge of and fascination with the Empress’s life are contagious. She reveals the essence of this self-involved and infamous last Empress, at the same time she takes the reader through China’s struggle for freedom and democracy.

In it Parsley opens with a references to the 1970 movie Little Big Man in which Dustin Hoffman discovers that an old acquaintance has become a Contrary, an Indian with a mental disorder that causes him to do everything backwards such as washing with dirt and drying off in the river. Also cited are the perverse, inverted Bizzaro world of certain Superman comics and the concept of Newspeak from George Orwell s 1984, which declared: War is peace; freedom is slavery; and ignorance is strength.
In tone, the book is mildly satirical and uses humor and good-natured mockery liberally to poke fun at the absurdity of the twisted positions held by so many cultural elites. The style and tone would similar to that of syndicated columnists Mark Steyn and Jonah Goldberg.
Structurally, this work is divided into two sections, each covering a theme that illustrates the book s premise of upside-down thinking and values. Each section will open with a brief overview of the topic; contain 8-10 chapters covering some example or point; and conclude with a clear declaration of right-side-up thinking.
